あらすじ・解説
A personal and powerful essay from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the best-selling author of Americanah and Half of a Yellow Sun, based on her 2013 TEDx talk of the same name.
'I would like to ask that we begin to dream about and plan for a different world. A fairer world. A world of happier men and happier women who are truer to themselves. And this is how to start: we must raise our daughters differently. We must also raise our sons differently....'
What does feminism mean today?
In this personal, eloquently argued essay - adapted from her much-admired TEDx talk of the same name - Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie offers listeners a unique definition of feminism for the 21st century, one rooted in inclusion and awareness. Drawing extensively on her own experiences and her deep understanding of the often masked realities of sexual politics, here is one remarkable author's exploration of what it means to be a woman now - an of-the-moment rallying cry for why we should all be feminists.
批評家のレビュー
"One and a half million YouTube viewings later, this small but perfectly formed talk has become an equally small but perfectly formed book, thanks to Fourth Estate. The perfect size in fact for handbags, pockets and Christmas stockings. There really is no excuse not to buy several." ( Harper's Bazaar)

A tad short but really enjoyed it. I've heard the whole book in snippets online. Almost felt like there was no point in me buying the book besides supporting her craft.

This should be a school textbook!!!
I loved every minute of this book...going back to listen to it a few more times after this!
It's saddening that we still need this message in the 21st century, but there is no better person to teach us that message than Chimamanda. Here's to hoping that there are many, maaany more texts like this to come...patriarchy mentalities, in both men & women, is a disease we need to eradicate...and FAST!

A good start in intersectional feminist theory
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie does a great job in explaining the fundamental point of feminism. While it is already known to those versed in such sociological aspects, it is a good start in learning about what it actually is.
I was more interested in her viewpoint of intersectional feminism which brings together the effects of race, class and gender on a person and their position in society. I hope that there will be more literature like this in the future.

A wonderful treatise for humanity to read
I would love to see this book on the curriculum of every High School in the world, the plight of women in the 21st Century is deplorable and I think this treatise would help to change this. it is written with intelligence and sensitivity and she reads very well, it gave me hope.

Expected more
I expected more from this book and thought she was going to build from the speech given at her TED talk, but oh well. There were some bright moments in this book/speech (bottom power - of a woman - taps into someone else's power), but it did not interrogate fully why we need feminism. I expected a challenge of patriarchal structure on a social, cultural and governmental level from an African/Nigerian perspective, but I did not get that. Instead we got some coddling of benevolent mysoginists ("they don't mean harm") and a strange segue into how her brother is a hot feminist and men too can be feminist if he can. I also got the impression that she was trying too hard to defend her position as a feminist and soften the movement/word for men when sometimes it is better to stand in it and not sugarcoat your movement for anyone. Feminism was boiled down to "raise your sons and daughters in a different way" but this largely ignores that the world also raises us.

Easy and interesting read
Enjoyed listening to this book. I could identify with the stories and definitely challenged to raise my children to be more aware of gender inequalities and to be proactive in making positive decisions and taking actions.

As the a father of a girl...
As the father of a girl, I'm pleased with this education. We should all be a feminist has just opened my mindset, especially on how to raise/talk and inspire my girl.

This is not true in the majority of first world countries. It shows we should educate African nations more.

Such an easy listen not only because its short, its well written and well read by Chimamanda herself, but also because it hits so many points that we really must reflect on and start making small changes in our actions. 👏🏾👏🏾

This resonated with my lived experience as a woma.
I first heard this speech in her charismatic TED Talk. The talk and speech are the same word for word but this slower and more somber reading highlights different nuances in this message of equality and empowerment.
I'm so happy to have heard this talk.

slightly longer than the Ted talk
if you've already seen the eponymous Ted talk, then you've already heard the meat of it. still, I'm glad to have it here as an always ready reminder of the struggles faced by women and the role I may play in it as a man.
if you haven't heard the talk, you'll enjoy this read thoroughly.
